Started leaving his crate open today and thought it was going well, he played with his toy for a b it in there then since that has walked in and peed im there twice.
Patience is key I guess. It's only day 3 should've expect miracles

Gotcha. Without the balcony that sounds like the next best thing. I think the key right now is to basically take him downstairs and outside literally every 30-45 minutes. Reward him heavily when he goes outside. After all, the goal is to get him to hold it until he gets outside. The pee pads are just a short term stop gap.
At only day 3 though, do not be stressing at all that he's not getting it! About day 6 I was convinced I was screwed for life. Nothing like having him walk into the room, look at you as if to say "screw you" and pee right on the floor. Like WTF.
Very cute pup though.
